Nevada is an outlier for scenic because access to certain places can be a challenge. Hwy 95 from LV to Reno is mostly boring but Hwy 93 from LV to Jackpot is wonderful. You have to be willing to work for it but Nevada is the most mountainous state in the lower 48 w/ 314 named ranges and 172 peaks w/ >2000' of prominence. There are 39 peaks >10k'.

I enjoy the fact that few people travel the back roads and trails and most areas require that you be self reliant and a good navigator. Wildlife is not abundant but is always there if you learn where to look. Nevada has the countrys' highest population of wild sheep and is a predator hunters paradise. Towns and services are few and far between
and as Fieldgrade has mentioned carry 2 spare tires and lots of water.
